"On ‘The Camino Concept’, many names & places may or may not have been changed to protect those who may or may not be fictitious. Believe it ... or not.

"Originally from the Beaver Valley Area, your ‘quasi-fictitious’ host is delighted to claim deep roots all over the Southwestern Pennsylvania region. He has from Finleyville and Monroeville, to Allison Park, and over to Monaca and Center Township. He also has an extensive ‘history’ from Baden, Rochester and Beaver Falls, to the North Hills as well.

"The Camino Concept’ began on Internet radio in Arizona in 2016. But as a hobby, I've been a volunteer presenter throughout my entire adulthood. I've always enjoyed sharing theme mix concepts of oldies music, for family, friends, ministry and community, always for free ... you get what you pay for, my dear ‘musical pilgrims.'

"Currently, ‘Camino Nation’ has affiliations with Internet stations in the Arizona Valley of The Sun, the Carolinas and in both Cheshire, U.K., and the northwest London area.

"As a newlywed of nearly 43 years, Billy and his wife, Lynda, have logged between them more than 40 cursillos, 70 Grand Canyon hikes, and more than 500 miles of ‘The Camino Pilgrimage’ in Spain and France."

Listen to the Camino Concept at 10 p.m. Thursdays, with rebroadcasts at 3 p.m. Fridays and 7 p.m. Mondays.

Jack Benny is back on the air on WMCK Sunday nights at 7. Each week, we dip into an archive of classic Jack Benny episodes, featuring his regular cast of naive tenor Dennis Day, alcoholic bandleader Phil Harris, rotund announcer Don Wilson, the "yes-s-s-s-s-s" man, Frank Nelson, Benny's faithful (but sarcastic) valet, Rochester, and Benny's real-life wife, Mary Livingston.
Listen, and find out why Jack Benny, the pride of Waukegan, Ill., and supposedly the stingiest man alive, was one of America's most popular comedians for 40 years.

Listen, and find out why Jack Benny, the pride of Waukegan, Ill., and supposedly the stingiest man alive, was one of America's most popular comedians for 40 years.

Then, at 7:30 p.m., it's tall tales and lots of puns with "Fibber McGee and Molly." Portrayed by Jim and Marion Jordan, their life at 79 Wistful Vista is interrupted by a constant stream of strange characters who tend to spoil "Fibber's" get-rich quick schemes.

At 8 p.m., WMCK switches to drama. First up, it's the groundbreaking police series "Dragnet." Airing on NBC radio from 1949 to 1957, "Dragnet" was probably the most influential police show of all time.

Created by and starring Jack Webb, "Dragnet" brought a new level of realism to radio with its "ripped from the headlines" stories of police work in Los Angeles, and later spun off several successful television shows.

Finally, at 8:30 p.m., it's a wheel of different shows, including science fiction from "Dimension X" and "Theater Five," detective shows like "The New Adventures of Nero Wolfe," and more.

Then stay tuned following the 9 p.m. news for classic bluegrass and country music until midnight.

Old-time radio is alive and well on WMCK.FM!
